MOJADER DIM ALOOR PUR BHORA PRATA

That made good dinner for us yesterday. After short outdoor walk, I was cooking all day which would not have been possible without Cristine. While I was on my walk, she had cut vegetables, boiled dal I was to take for an elderly being. I cooked them. The elderly host in that home treated me with variety of snacks which included "Kumror Dhoka Bhaja & Goan Gulgule".... in fact I informed that person it is Goan Gulgule some of my friends have blogged about. A warm hug made me feel good, I repeat, company of elderly beings make me feel good unless they keep talking about "rog, bhog, ashukh, bishukh".... that irritates me because my "funda" is kind of "ignore your pain, live your life till your last day".... People should have at least one area of interest, some do not have any.... on which topic we can talk for sometime. 

One cannot mingle with people who do not have any common interest, say cooking, reading, walking! I will be cooking hilsa curry tomorrow, mutton too.... carry them for someone next week.... that is another company I enjoy.... such meetings do not come with burden of discussing people, their homes or similar non-enrichment talks.... I look forward for them. As of today, let us share recipe of what we ate last night, something with heavenly combination of eggs, potatoes, non-vegetarian main MOJADER DIM ALOOR PUR BHORA PRATA served with sauces, plain yogurt! There are even salad sauces!

I am bit tensed today because after sharing these stuffed flat bread recipe with combination of whole wheat, refined flour, potato, eggs, I have to get on with an experimental sweet.... if I am successful, you get it on Bijoya Doshomi, else I have to think of something else before pujo sets in. I have a busy next week, have to colour my hair, get my nails pedicured, manicured, share few more recipes for my readers than I usually do in a week. I am too poor with time management. I am still a learner while doing stuffed breads but I find out easier ways for them because my family loves them. This stuffing does not require any cooking, a drizzle of olive oil, lemon juice, coarsely ground fresh black pepper, some chopped coriander worked wonderfully. Potato & Egg mash Mixed Flour Breads MOJADER DIM ALOOR PUR BHORA PRATA will not look as good as Meryl Streep.... they look more like me but my kinds are useful in a household.... we are not that "a beautiful piece in showcase material".... but it is for our kinds husbands do not have to think beyond their office.... the only problem is we do not contribute to family's finances! See, this morning, leftovers from yesterday night was made into "kochuri".... Cristine arranged everything, I only fried them!
